【2K*1440P+170°Wide-Angle】 OVAMAN K400 Dash Cam for Cars with a 1440P + 170° viewing Angle solution for your daily use.Can easily capture license plates,road signs,and other critical details on the road. To provide the most important evidence of a car accident.
【Built-in 2.4G WiFi & App Control 】K400 dash camera has a built-in 2.4G WiFi, which can connect your mobile phone through the APP to achieve real-time preview, smooth download, and share your scenery along the way.Faster and more convenient operation.
【Mini Dash Cam with 1.47 inch IPS Screen & Easy to Install】It has an ultra compact size (3.35x1.38x1.26 inch WDH), which compared to other large-sized dashcams, does not obstruct your driving view, making you safer while driving. At the same time, we have added a 1.47-inch screen under this mini size, making it more convenient for you to understand the working condition of the dashcam.
【Loop Recording & 32G TF Card included & G-sensor】 When recording videos, it packages each video clip into a folder and records it on the memory card. When the memory card is full, it will first overwrite the previous video folder for loop recording. In addition, it comes with a G-sensor, which can be used in emergency situations similar to car accidents, It will lock the video folder for this time period from being overwritten, thus saving key video evidence.
【Support 24H Parking Mode & Time-lapse Recording】24-hour parking mode requires additional wire accessories (ASIN: B0DBHPSLB4, not included). When your car is parked, this dash cam will automatically switch to parking mode.Combined with delayed recording function, it can maintain continuous recording at low power consumption. In order to prevent your battery from running out, you can also set a low voltage protect in the app.

Title: Really great for the price
Review: This unit is really simple and small. It is basically completely hidden behind the rear view mirror (the photo is at an angle to show, but it's completely behind the mirror if you're looking straight on when you're driving, so it's not distracting at all).I used a separately purchased power adapter to draw power from the dimmable rear view mirror. I'd highly recommend this over running the cable all over the car.The app is pretty simple and easy to use. It's easy to download videos to your phone. It comes with a 32GB sd card. I'll wait and see if it seems worth buying a bigger one, but it seems fine assuming you just want to catch your recent drives in case something happens.Video is pretty clear (night attached), but you're definitely not reading the license plate on another car unless it's right in front of you and the light is good. I could zoom in and read the plate of the car in front of me at a light, but there was too much reflection from the lights at night to make it out most of the time. It's definitely clear enough to provide evidence if someone pulls out in front of you, but don't expect to get a plate number. That part is okay with me, really. If someone runs a light and hits me, I'd like to have evidence that my light was green, and this should be good for that.The only thing I think I'd like at this price is a little battery to run briefly when USB power is cut. It stops recording immediately when you shut off the car. It would be nice if it would keep recording off battery for a few minutes, but that's not a deal breaker. (I had a cheaper dash cam before this that was too bulky and not as nice overall, but it did have an internal battery.)

Title: Best Dash camera
Review: I bought 2 dash cameras for my cars and they are small and light weight, easy installation and the picture is so clear. I was very impressed by how small it is but still captured the entire front of the car and sides. It has also has an app that is very easy to use.

Title: It's ok
Review: The camera is compact and long cord that I was able to tuck and hide. Takes decent video from what I can access. The app is complete trash. Unless you're near a good wifi connection it will now connect phone to camera. When it finally connects, it throws my phone off main wifi and says I have no Internet connection. Takes a bit to access the video storage and when I can review the footage, the camera goes offline and restarts. Very frustrating. I bought 2 of these and only installed 1 in my car. Not sure if I want to install one in wife's car or search for a different one. The camera works good, just not happy with the connection which is probably the second most important part

Title: Easy install
Review: Great value for your money if youâre looking for a small easy to install dash cam. I watched a few videos on YouTube and in 20 minutes I was able to run the wiring Underneath the front windshield and down the driver side door. No issues at all with the recording. No need for me to unplug it out of the cigarette lighter at night. My Subaru legacy already shuts off the power when I take the Key out. Be careful to check your car to see if you need to unplug.

Title: Easy to install, great peace of mind
Review: I purchased this dash cam after hearing some horror stories of people getting into accidents that weren't their fault and having the other party blame them for causing the accident. This unit was incredible easy to install and it was ready to go out of the box. It plugs into the cigarette lighter slot and comes with a long cable that allows you to route the wire around your dashboard and up the windscreen so it is out of view. The included mounting supplies worked well to attach the dashcam to the top of my windshield. Adjusting the angle was easy given the live view on the back of the unit. It was also nice that an SD card was included so I didn't have to procure that myself. The dashcam doesn't have many buttons and instead relies on connecting wirelessly to your phone to adjust settings like date and time.I recently used it on a long drive from VA to NY and the dashcam worked flawlessly. I was able to capture much of my drive on the SD card. Overall the unit worked great and the video quality is good enough to read license plate numbers from a distance.

Title:
Review: Easy to install (extra adhesive provided for a second install if necessary) and compact size (note -it does have a small screen that helps with confirming function and proper viewing angle). Plenty of power cord for snaking from power outlet across windshield to camera. Camera has a speaker and plays spoken prompts but speaker quality is so bad I cannot comprehend what it is saying - fortunately easy to mute the audio prompts from the app. The captured video is very good quality

Review: Easy to install and slides out if you need to hide the camera. Holding up in +30°C summer heat. The App is easy to use and makes downloading clips easy, however it's own WiFi is slow. Very clear images in day but hard to read plates. All these budget dashcams don't perform well in lowlight. I wish it came with a tool to hide the wire. I recommend this dashcam.
